“Annabella was amazing! She went above and beyond to care for our cat Loki while we were on vacation. The night we left, our fire alarms became defective and kept setting off until our maintenance team could come fix them the next day. Annabella stayed extra long during her visit to reassure Loki and comfort him. Our litter robot also had a connection issue, and she was able to reset it & set up an emergency litter box I had shipped to the home. The fire alarm situation caused me a lot of anxiety at the beginning of the trip, but the daily updates and photos from Annabella made me feel so much better and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the rest of our trip, knowing our boy was in good hands! We would definitely rebook with her on future trips. :)”

About: I've been surrounded by animals all my life. Dogs especially. I helped to raise an accidental litter of nine puppies with my mom who kept four of the puppies who are very happy. I'm experienced in taking care of waste, walks, food prepping, and overall patience to help however I can. I also have experience working overnight in a boarding facility where I feed, medicate, potty, and monitor anywhere from 15 to 40+ dogs. I can assure the utmost care and attention when I'm with your little(or big) ones. I'm currently free to work whenever. I'm eager to help out where I can and will reply to requests immediately. I have a puppy of my own and he's very happy and I love taking care of him alongside my partner. I don't currently have much space to take any animals into my own home but I will be completely willing to go to a clients house. I will take note of every specific need and happily take care of any tasks asked of me.

About: I’ve had a dog all my life. I have helped watch over my aunts family’s dog when they are out of town. I have experience with all kinds of dogs! I personally have a small dog, a Maltipoo Terrier, but other family members have mediums sized and big dogs as well! I love taking my dog on walks and playing with her. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best take care of your animal! I am currently working a part-time job and am looking to make some extra money and play with animals, so I have enough time for dog walking, house sitting, and house calls! I am available most nights for house sitting and walking or just drop ins depending on when I get the message! I love to just sit down and play with them, either with their toys or just running around, and hanging out and chilling with them! I make sure they are fed, hydrated, clean, and loved!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have hands on experience caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level. I enjoy giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets, overnight pet sitting works great and I will have plenty of time to care for the pets regardless of schedule. I take your pet’s safety and your instructions seriously. I make sure to follow your care instructions and household rules exactly as requested. For indoor cats, I’m especially careful when entering and leaving the home to make sure they don’t slip out. I’ll also follow any feeding, playtime, litter box, medication, and routine instructions you provide. For dogs, I follow your specific walking and care instructions and make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need.

About: I worked in vet med for the past 6 years. I am currently taking a break from it to open up my schedule to do more at home pet sitting. I can administer medications (injectable, oral and topical), I love all age stages from babies to seniors! Young, old, spicy and sweet. I always make sure to let owners know what my schedule is looking like and if that is going to work with their pets routine. I stick to the routine the pet is used to as much as possible. Any medications, sleeping arrangements, even down to what kind of blankey they get tucked in with at night.

About: I’ve helped with animals since I was a kid. I have helped my mom run her own dog watching business that she did for 6 years. I have also taken care of a tortoise and some cats. I love all animals and will treat them like my family. I work full time so I can check in on the babies after work and can fully give them my attention on the weekend. If the animal stays in my home, they will get my attention before and after work, making sure they are well taken care of and loved. I live in an apartment but have a patio area they can go out onto. I will walk them outside for potty breaks. I have a 6 year old who loves animals and will enjoy keeping them company. I have a crate and can crate them if needed.

About: I’ve had the opportunity to assist my girlfriend with several Rover drop in visits and overnight stays (always with the clients’ permission), and it’s inspired me to start offering pet care myself. I’ve been a lifelong dog and cat owner and have always loved spending time with animals. Caring for pets comes naturally to me, and I understand how important it is for owners to know their pets are in good hands. Outside of pet care, I’ve worked in healthcare for the past eight years, where attention to detail, reliability, communication, and compassion are essential every day. While healthcare and pet sitting are different fields, those same qualities carry over into the care I provide. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. Currently working full time from 8:00 - 5:00 PM, and my hours will be much more flexible when school starts in August. I will be available almost every day. I prioritize safety, comfort, and communication in every home I visit. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, loved, and cared for, while respecting their unique personality and routine. Whether they enjoy lots of playtime and attention or prefer a calm, quiet environment, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they always know how their furry family member is doing.

Im so grateful to Issy taking care of my babies. I have a regular babysitter who is gone for the summer and am always nervous to trust someone new but she honestly exceeded my expectations and I just booked her again for next month. The thorough updates she provides really puts me at ease and I was surprised that even my most timid kitty warmed up to her immediately. 🩷

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Surprise

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Surprise is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 725 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Surprise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Surprise. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
